Answer:

The correct answer is option A. true.

Explanation:

Hydrostatic pressure is the main driving force that helps lymph move between capillaries and interstitial compartment or tissues. The pressure caused by a fluid against the wall of interstitial is called Interstitial hydrostatic pressure (IFHP).  IFHP is comparably low than capillary hydrostatic pressure because lymphatic vessels are regularly absorbing extra fluid from the interstitial compartment.  

Thus, the correct answer is option A. true.

I used to take ADHD medicines and the effects are like a sad mood, irritability, and a flat affect or facial expressions, me personally didn’t like taking them because it makes me lose touch with reality, my mind is focused which is good, but i’m not social. i seem like i’m not in the mood for anything.. i seem sad when i’m on them. but later on in the day you know when they’re wearing off.
